Despite this, customers flocked to the gas station, forming continuous lines. Dr Ambedkar Students and Youth Panthers were in charge of planning the event. “Inflation has risen. Under the Narendra Modi administration, the price of petrol has risen to 120 rupees per litre. So, to help people and honour Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar’s birthday, we decided to provide petrol at a one-rupee cost “The outfit’s state unit chief, Mahesh Sarvagoda, acknowledged as much. “If a little organisation like us can help 500 individuals, the government can help as well,” he continued. “I was delighted to find gasoline at this pricing. Despite the fact that inflation is reaching new heights every day, I managed to save a little money “explained one of the buyers.
